Gee I guess if you are a knee jerk Bush hater you simply ignore the fact that it was Democrat Senator Carl Levin who threw Pace under the bus. Said Pace would not get confrimed because of his opposition to “Don’t Ask, don’t Tell” so the nomination should not even be submitted
But of course for the ignorant Bush hater crowd, facts don’t matter, only what they FEEL is real.
They are confused people.
Please see post #19.
Enough is enough. I proudly voted for Bush twice only to see the man flush himself down the toilet. He makes me sick to my stomach.
Hurry up, 2009.
“Gee I guess if you are a knee jerk Bush hater you simply ignore the fact that it was Democrat Senator Carl Levin who threw Pace under the bus. Said Pace would not get confirmed because of his opposition to Dont Ask, dont Tell so the nomination should not even be submitted”
No, just because S. Levin said he would not be confirmed.. that does not mean doodle..
P. Bush should have asked General Pace to face the liberal sacks down.. Let them vote against confirmation.. Let them explain it to the American People..
Let General Pace tell the true facts related to homosexuality in our military and it’s terrible affect on moral, good order and discipline when it pops up from time to time.
Let him describe in graphic and specific detail the conduct and the damage to good order and discipline homosexual behavior has caused.. I have seen it time and time again.. I watched an entire Battalion hang their heads in shame when their Commander during an alert and under stress got so excited he sexually attacked his driver... What? Exactly..
I have seen where some homosexual sexually attacked drunk soldiers late at night returning to their hooches.
Or in the British Army where many of the Officers in WWI were from the British Aristocracy and would keep one soldier safe as a clerk their “Boyfriend” while the other men “went over the top” and died.
People live and die on your word as an Officer or an NCO... they have every right to expect you will be a person practicing a greater level of moral and ethical conduct in your affairs both personal and professional.. To the extent that is not true you betray your position and the people in your command above and below..and the American people. It is not like anything else in the world. If you say do something people will do it knowing they may/will die or be horribly injured... They have the right to know you are not choosing them to suffer and or die to protect your “Luv”..
P Bush’s caving is just as disgusting.

Oh, I must have missed the President standing behind his nominee...
If I disagree with the President cutting the cord on Pace I must be either a Bush-hater, or ignorant...or both.
Well, you sure showed me a thing or two about political debate. I’ll think twice before tangling with you.
Great Post MNJohnie - THANK YOU for reminding people that you have to go to war with the Senate you have, not the Senate you wish you had ;-)
